"At least 11 are dead, and officials aren't sure what kind of animal is the perpetrator or why the attacks in the Reche Canyon area are happening. The situation is so bad that a local donkey rescue is offering a $10,000 reward for information on the attacks, which some fear could be intentionally directed by humans."
"Please help, DonkeyLand's owners wrote on Facebook Wednesday, Feb. 25, in a post that included a photo of an injured burro bleeding from its ear. The posts calling for help span several months and began late last year."
"Nearly a dozen burros have been seriously injured over the last few months, according to social media posts from DonkeyLand a Riverside-based nonprofit group that cares for and rescues the animals."
Wild burros roaming the foothills and canyons between Colton and Moreno Valley are being attacked by an unknown animal or possibly humans. At least 11 burros have died, with numerous others injured over several months beginning in late last year. DonkeyLand, a Riverside-based nonprofit rescue organization, is offering a $10,000 reward for information about the attacks occurring in the Reche Canyon area. Injured burros have been treated at SoCal Equine Hospital in Norco, with some expected to make full recoveries. The organization has made multiple appeals on social media for public assistance in identifying the cause and perpetrator of these attacks.
